<p class="MsoNormal">Again, I’m having trouble seeing how this compromises the integrity or neutrality of the process. That’s what seems to be a bridge too far. I’m not trying to be dismissive but to seriously understand the context in which making public an

<p class="MsoNormal">I’ll admit my bias is toward a structured solution that generates some stats that WE can use. But we’re talking about making all such data available via an open data platform eventually so I fail to see how a choice of vendor would spoil
the milk. Open to being convinced however.<o:p></o:p></p>
